skills/azure-netapp-files/SKILL.mdAzure NetApp Files Skill
This skill provides expert guidance for Azure NetApp Files. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.
How to Use This Skill
IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g.,
), useL35-L120with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g.,read_file), use[security.md](security.md)on the linked reference fileread_file
IMPORTANT for Agent: If
is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. Ifmetadata.generated_attools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guidemcp_microsoftdocs
This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:
- Preferred: Use
with query stringmcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch
. Returns Markdown.from=learn-agent-skill - Fallback: Use
with query stringfetch_webpage
. Returns Markdown.from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown
